“Our planned move to Devon had not been without its difficulties. Whilst we had sold our home without any problems my wife and I were struggling to find a suitable property and attempts at negotiation in relation to those homes in which we were interested had proved very problematic. It was at that juncture that we made contact with Robin Thomas of Recoco and sought his assistance. We were immediately impressed by his extensive knowledge of the West Country housing market, his thorough approach to ascertaining the type of home we were seeking and his diligent research. The upshot was that he located a house , calmly carried out negotiations on our behalf, helped us locate well qualified professional advisers and thereafter ensured that the transaction went ahead despite more than the occasional unexpected issue arising. He was always available to lend his support and we were truly grateful to him for his commitment and sensible advice.”

Thank you so much for all your help and professionalism, Nigel. There is no way we’d have got here without you and you made it a very enjoyable journey.

  • “As first-time home buyers with a very specific brief, Robin led us through the whole process in a way that alleviated our stress and made it incredibly easy for us. We ended up in a competitive bidding situation and Robin’s advice was invaluable. We could not have done it without him. We are thrilled with our home and would not hesitate to recommend the Recoco team!”

  • "Nigel took on a complicated assignment as I am partially sighted, therefore my requirements were quite specific. His sympathetic, knowledgeable, constructive and professional approach lead us in time to a conclusion."

  • "For the second time, we engaged Nigel to assist us – this time a move within Devon. Our first experience, fifteen years ago, had resulted in us buying and then developing a house in South Hams. We had been based in the South East at the time and did not know Devon and the South West at all. Nigel was part of enabling what has turned out to be a life enhancing experience on the waterfront in a large house and garden with its own boathouse."

“Robin from Recoco worked with us over the course of nearly two years to find the perfect Devon Farm.

His extensive contact book and decades of experience found us properties not pubicly marketed. His support didn’t just end once our offer was accepted. He walked us through the process right up to completion. We are delighted with our eventual purchase, which would not have happened without his support”.

“We were very fortunate to sell our Cotswold farmhouse very quickly. However, we had decided we wanted to relocate to the coast and trying to find a house several hundred miles away whilst we still had animals and land to look after (let alone a pandemic to work through) was always going to be particularly challenging. For this reason we decided that, for the first time in our lives, we would instruct a property search agent and we chose Recoco as the company was highly thought of in the area we wanted to move to. Through his local contacts Robin was able to provide information on many properties before they were listed on advertising portals and he viewed a number of properties on our behalf. When we did view properties he always made himself available to come with us and we greatly appreciated being able to use him as a sounding board. However, Robin’s incredible skills really shone through when he managed to obtain the viewing and negotiate the purchase of the house which we now live in, all a week before formal viewings were scheduled to start! Robin was an absolute delight to deal with and we unreservedly recommend Recoco.”

  • “Pippa and I are so pleased that we chose Recoco to help us in our search for a cottage in Dorset. All the way through the process from finding suitable property to view, to negotiating the price and then eventually completing, you have been helpful in ways that neither of us could have imagined beforehand, and all of which led to a happy and successful conclusion.”

  • “The prospect of finding a flat in London was a daunting one given my busy work and home life. RPS took all of those stresses and strains off my plate and took care of all of the necessary logistics. James and Nigel were hugely well-informed, accommodating and supportive for someone who was entering into the property market for the first time. Thanks so much both of you!”

  • “I am so grateful to James Nightingall for all his help and support. Having found me my perfect home in Wimbledon, he negotiated a good purchase price for me and called me regularly before we exchanged contracts. It was very reassuring to know that he was always there , nothing was too much trouble. Thank you to James and Nigel for their excellent advice, it was a joy working with them.”

“In trying to find a property to buy in Exeter from abroad, there was absolutely no way that we could have found our dream house without the help of Robin. Thanks to Robin, we were able to purchase an off-market property in the ideal location that works for our family. What makes Robin so special is not only his expert knowledge and amazing professional experience, but also the deeply personal nature of his service. He took time to get to know us and gave most thoughtful advice based on his understanding of our needs. He went extra miles and provided services to ensure that every stage of property purchase worked smoothly. It meant a lot to us that any given point through the whole process, we knew that we could trust Robin 100% to act in our best interest possible. We have interacted with many property agents before. Robin really is the best of his kind.”
